Targa Newfoundland a racing homecoming for Florida brothers
Targa Newfoundland a racing homecoming for Florida brothers
We’re excited to welcome back Rick and Sam Marshall to Targa Newfoundland for a second year. The racing brothers hail from Florida, U.S.A. but they have strong family ties to Newfoundland.
Rick and Sam’s grandfather was born in St. John’s and emigrated to the United States in the early 1900’s. Family reunions and Targa have provided an opportunity to come back and connect with relatives and to make a new Targa family.
As members of Gulfcoast Autocrossers, they enjoy competing in autocross and running fast laps at Sebring. They raced Targa Newfoundland 2023 and are looking forward to returning in 2024. Their goal is to successfully navigate the twisty scenic roads and finish all of the stages!
Their vehicle of choice to race the “Rock” is a slightly modified 2016 Subaru STI. To make it speedy they added an IAG long block, FP Blue Turbo and front mount intercooler. To make it stop: some EBC Red Stuff brake pads!
“The first year we were attracted to racing through beautiful towns and the scenic transits between them. Returning, we are most looking forward to spending time with the Targa family,” says Sam.
